Long ago, when I first looked into machine learning, neural networks didn’t
stand out of the crowd. They seemed on par with decision trees, genetic
algorithms, genetic programming, and a host of other techniques. I wound up
dabbling in genetic programming because it seemed coolest.

Neural networks have since distinguished themselves. Lately, they seem
responsible for each newsworthy machine learning achievement I hear about.
To name a few:
